Proxies/how they work/how you can use them etc.
If you are inside your school or at work you are probably not allowed to visit your favorite sites like Facebook or Orkut as the school/office server blocks these fun sites and worse, even during break time. And of course you will have to face the music if you are caught going to these sites during school time or office hours. But don’t worry, there is a way to get around that and that secret formula is using a proxy or what is sometimes also called a gateway or anonymizer. A proxy server or proxy site is basically like a buffer that lets you surf the internet anonymously and your IP address is not visible to the filters and you can sneak past them to go to your favorite sites and download files.
A proxy also lets you download faster and loads pages quicker. So your computer is also safe from potential hackers when you are surfing the internet and you don’t need to worry about blocked sites, you can unblock Facebook or just about any other site. You can also use your web messengers from anywhere and send free text SMSs using the proxy. An excellent free proxy server is fatsurf.com that lets you do that and all their services are absolutely free and very easy to use in fact you won’t have to do anything except go to fatsurf.com and enter any site URL into the box provided and click Browse. It is really that simple.
Because of speed, security and anonymity a proxy server lets you blog in peace and visit and SMS to your friends and family anywhere without having to worry about being blocked. I would recommend Fatsurf’s Myspace Proxy is a Myspace proxy that you can use to get on Myspace from school! And no, they will not tell your teachers.
